The trading course industry is flocked with different companies promoting their courses. I remember choosing to become a trader a while ago and I was having difficulty choosing which course to purchase. Back then there were few reviews regarding courses since most of them focused on trading platforms themselves in the form of introductory guides. That is why I am writing this review so that you as a beginner can understand why I picked a specific site from where I got all my courses regarding trade.

The perfect trading course platform

I searched for a while to find the perfect source where all types of trade-related courses were available. I eventually found ‘MyTradingCollege’. Now there were many other options as well that I would have considered as well but the reason I chose MyTradingCollege was because of a couple of factors. After spending a significant amount of time searching for a course source, I came up with a strategy to help me decide which site would best serve my requirements and what types of courses I need to fulfil my needs and become an actual trader. Here are the factors I used to pick MyTradingCollege as my go-to trade course platform.

• Easy access
• Friendly user interface and Easy signup
• Course catalogue
• Payment methods

Easy Access

When you start the journey to becoming a trader, one course is not enough. You need to study and complete multiple courses if you are ever to become an actual trader. Otherwise, simple courses won’t do you much good since a trader is supposed to be skilled in the art of handling all kinds of assets whereas a single course might help you trade in a single type of asset which is not very efficient. So back to the point of access, if you are going to learn trade then you need easy access to your accounts to get the new course content as soon as you are done with the present course.

Many trading course platforms are difficult to access in different regions. I remember taking a course on the importance of crypto trading from a different platform and when I entered a different region for business purposes, I was cut off from accessing a new course since the site was not supported in that particular region. This was mostly due to a lack of support in that region. It’s also the reason why I stuck with MyTradingCollege because, during that cutoff period, I was able to sign up for a different course platform with ease.

This was proof for me that MyTradingCollege had cross-regional support and it was a huge plus point for me. If you are someone who does not travel a lot, you would do okay with any other course but a trader is always on the move and he or she cannot afford to lose precious time when on trips. This is why I preferred an open platform such as MyTradingCollege for my day-to-day trading courses.

Like many other platforms, the one drawback I found was that MyTradingCollege still did not cover enough regions to be used in different regions. While it did cover the major cities and ensured uninterrupted access for their customers, there was a moment where the access would drop in certain areas. Their service team has since acknowledged this issue and is actively working on getting this problem patched as soon as possible.

Friendly user interface and Easy signup

When you open up a website, the first thing you see I the homepage. The homepage is the site’s first attempt at getting your attention. I’ll admit that when I first glanced at MyTradingCollege’s homepage, I was amazed by how organized it was. Normally a course page is all over the place it is unlikely that it would be able to briefly explain what it is that they offer their potential customers. The user interface of the homepage is simple yet elegant. It utilizes the single bar implementation and a separate button for registration when you eventually decide to do so.

Once you finish up checking and reviewing the offers available, you can get registered by simply clicking on the “Register” button. It will redirect you to a page where you can enter your details and select your payment methods. Do not worry about the information you enter. All your data is safely stored in encrypted servers to ensure that no third party can access them. Only you can edit the data linked to your account.

There are several different courses available filtered based on their categories and types of assets. Each course has a brief description and users can choose to get a detailed description as well if they want to. Once you get a course for yourself, you can access it whenever you want to through your account. And that’s that. You can now begin your journey to become a professional trader.

Course catalogue

I wouldn’t blame you to think that you can learn all about the trade from a single course. The truth is technically you can learn everything there is to know about the trade from a single course. However, if you want to enter the marketplace as a professional trader then you need to get all sorts of courses that help you master the techniques required to trade in different types of financial systems using assets.

Each asset deserves its course and for the most part, MyTradingCollege has not disappointed. It has trading courses for all sorts of assets. There are courses for forex, commodities, centralised currencies, and company stocks.  Many other platforms did offer relatively cheaper courses for these assets but their content was not as refined and they lacked one key product and that was blockchain courses. One of the reasons why I chose this trading course platform was because of the blockchain course.

Course distribution       

There are mainly three-course distributions on this trading platform. They are lite, plus and pro. Each distribution represents a completely different category in terms of complexity and benefits. The more complex the course is the harder it will be for you to understand but it will benefit you in the long run.

Lite

The lite course distribution was developed for the basic beginners who have little to no experience. This distribution is targeted at individuals who do not have the prior knowledge required to complete or even start the higher complexity courses. The Lite course distribution is relatively cheap and contains everything one might need to kickstart their trading business. I started with the included 90 minutes run time videos and moved up as I gained more knowledge. The Lite course includes basic information such as daily market updates and an economic calendar to remind you when trading is conducted and on what days of a week the markets are open.

Plus

The plus course has been designed for traders who have just started turning a profit and are actively looking to expand their business. Basically, after completing the ‘Lite’ course, you might get this distribution to further increase your knowledge after trading for a little while. It offers all the basic tools and additional products that will help you establish your reputation as a serious trader. This course introduces the concept of trading psychology and how it affects your bidding practices. This course also includes a daily analysis feature that helps you improve your trading skills and be better at developing bidding schematics quickly.

Pro

The pro distribution is for those seasoned professionals who have been trading for a significant portion of their lives. The complexity of this course is high and it includes everything. from advanced trading tools to the basic analysis characteristics of the economic system. The pro course is the guide to the entire financial marketplace and you as a seasoned professional can get this course to learn about the new types of assets such as blockchains that might benefit you in your yearly earnings report.

If you are an absolute beginner in trading then here is a brief introduction to blockchain. It is the technology upon which cryptocurrencies are based upon. If you can master trading on the blockchain then you have done it all. Cryptocurrencies are extremely hot this year and are only expected to rise in the coming years. There are millions of people around the world who trade in crypto and are the driving force of the next generation of the world’s economy.

Final thoughts

Not all courses are the same. Some courses might be cheaper but might lack quality. Some might be more expensive, but they might not necessarily be fit for you as a beginner. You need to find the best course that fits your needs as a newcomer to the industry. I have explained to you my experience when I first started out and now it’s up to you to decide on what path to take when you begin your journey to becoming a trader.
